How can I get ranking keys of competitors
-
Sometimes it might be clever to analyse the stategy of a competitor to see with which keys they rank successfully. For example I have a webshop, so I type in amazon.com and seomoz spits out: books, dvds, ... I can now see with what keys i wont have a chance and can think of missing keys where my chance might be. Is there a possibility to find out with seomoz?
-
No problem, you guys is worth it.
Thanks for the Q&A point, did not think of it. -
but only the keys you added, no?
-
Lots of good answers. Easier would be, if there was a tool. can't be that difficult. Maybe an idear for the team...?
-
The Q&A forum is available just to Pro members, so if someone is in here asking, that means they also have a pro membership.
Thanks for the compliment about the Pro membership Robert!

Check their keyword metatags and titles... the keyword listed there are the ones they want to rank for. Then launch a rank checker to see how they perform.

Term extractor is for all, the KW Difficulty just for Pro members.
-
both great tools. SEOmoz has a ton of tools as well.. if you setup campaigns, you can also add competitors and track their wins / fails as well.
-
The term extractor tool is very useful, and I use semrush.com if I want to check what a competitor ranks highest for.
-
Not sure if this is part of the PRO package or available to all, but http://www.seomoz.org/term-extractor and the Keyword Difficulty Tool are both helpful.
A shameless plug for SEOmoz here is I have never regretted having the pro membership.

Hi, I am new in moz. I just wonder why on pro it shows that our domain laysander.com is rank no 9 on google US. but when I check myself on google.com, it shows on page 2. No 4. What should I do to increase my real rank so that I can go to page 1 Top 3? Thanks,

Universal rankings has made my page not show in rankings any more
We've had a page with a video on it for ages; it always ranks well, generally around no. 5. But I've noticed that it's now ignored in SEMOZ as a page, and only shows as a Universal Result - so it looks as though our top page is no. 22, even thought the video shows as an icon still in the same position, no. 5. That's annoying as I now have to explain to my stakeholders how come our rankings appear to have dropped off a cliff - when i fact they haven't. The page appears in google SERPS exactly as it always has. Can anything be done to make it appear back as it did in SEMOZ? Thanks

The product IT is using is from F5 called Application Security Manager.

How can I find my past KW rankings?
I want to know how I can find out how a client's site was ranking for keywords at the beginning of the campaign so I can compare it with current rankings. I haven't been generating reports regularly. I kinda assumed I could ask for the reports retroactively. As in, what was the ranking of my keywords from the first crawl done by SEO moz. Thanks!

Limit of 3 competitors per campaign
Hello, Can I just check why the number of competitors per campaign is limited to 3? ie. We have up to 20 URLs we want to monitor for the same keywords as us. I understand I can add another campaign to track another 4x URLs, but this will not show those in relation to our main URL/campaign. We would prefer to have space for 12 competitors rather than 12 campaigns. If we upgrade to Elite is the number increased? Might be missing something here, as we are new to SEOMoz, so grateful for any advice. SEOMoz is really great, we have learned so much already. Rich
